Julia Curley, Saturday morning at the track (B&W 2022)
An 0230 start on a balmy Saturday morning. To the stables first, to load the horses, then follow the float to the local racetrack. It is like a different world here; it's quiet and peaceful and the work is methodical and there's not a lot of chit chat; just people doing the tasks they know need to be done. Trainers and jockeys speak quietly together and then they are off, down to the track for a run. It's a magical environment - watching these magnificent creatures go through their daily routines.
